Congress leader Rahul Gandhi Wednesday termed as "very serious" the issue of China releasing a "standard map" that laid claim over Arunachal Pradesh and Aksai Chin. He said the neighbouring country had already taken India's land in Ladakh and Prime Minister Narendra Modi should speak on the issue, PTI reported.

On Monday, Beijing released the 2023 edition of the so-called "standard map of China" that laid claim over Arunachal Pradesh and Aksai Chin as regions within its borders.
